水上行走机器人问世 模仿水黾水上漂（国外英文资料） Water walking robots have been used to imitate water striders Dispatch of sina science and technology Beijing time on July 12, according to physicists organization network reported that recently, the two researchers at the university of the United States Carnegie Mellon - mechanical engineering doctoral student Song arms drill (Yun Seong Song) and an assistant professor of mechanical engineering wood-cuts siti, developed the worlds first can imitate water strider robot home-sick once more for kung fu. The robot can walk on water both in appearance and design of similar to water strider: it will not damage the surface tension, and it has high maneuverability and flexibility. Step x on the surface of water strider can a lifetime wont leave their footprints on land, in fact, they also is not a swimmer. About a million years ago, the insects were able to maximize surface tension and balance their bodies in 0.01 grams. Whether in lakes, ponds, or oceans, they truly do what they say. Robot is different with other can float on the water, the song arms drill and small robot developed siti weight is lighter, and has a long leg, so to make full use of the surface tension, and then keep floating state. By contrast, big men in water robots must rely on buoyancy, which depends on their volume. According to two researchers, the small robot could be used for environmental monitoring by wireless communication. They can also be used for education and entertainment purposes. Siti said: the machine water strider -- what we call surface tension machine insect dynamics detector - can be in only three to four meters deep shallow water walking on. Their power and agility, speed and flexibility are considerably more than the relevant small aquatic robots, the reason: relative to any robot on buoyancy, machine water strider legs resistance smaller. And as siti points out, if the machine water strider became a giant to calculate, this advantage will cease to exist,
